WTB was put on this planet to help you up your MTB game. If you're an XC renegade dominating the land on your 29er, you might want to take a look at some ultra tough, super supple, tubeless compatible rubber from WTB. The Moto TCS 29er Mountain Tire does it all with aggressive treads along the lateral edge and a little more flow down the middle to keep mud and water from reducing your traction. This means you can lean into corners like never before and still break away and climb like a crank wielding trail-i-cidal maniac. And at under 650 grams your load is lightened in any case--go tubeless, and forget about it, you'll be lighter, grippier, and faster than you had ever thought possible.

I was looking for a narrow tire with good traction and this fit the mold perfectly. Only a few down sides. It is wearing quickly and is a little sketchy going fast on hard surfaces. Also it is not the best rolling tire but I bought it suspecting that anyway. Most of the trails in my area are wet, loose, and slippery and I get good bite with these tires. Overall I like it, just wish it wasn't wearing so fast.

Set this tire up with Stans no tubes sealant and the sidewalls leaked all over the place from very small pin holes. Once I rode the bike for awhile, the sealant sealed them up but it was very difficult to get them all sealed up. Good tire for the price. I like the 1.9 width

Mounted these as soon as they arrived. Hit the trails as a roadie convert and the lightweight has helped my transition. Great traction all around and better than expected in moderate mud, even with my limited skills.
